UN Accuses Al-Shabaab of Recruiting Mozambican Children

The United Nations has accused Al-Shabaab of recruiting young children from Mozambique into its ranks.

On October 8, the United Nations Children Fund (UNICEF) made this stunning revelation.

UNICEF said that its officers had noted this development in Cabo Delgado, a Mozambican province that is rich in oil.

Nevertheless, UNICEF stated that it has no information if Mozambique’s Al-Shabaab has links to the Al-Shabaab militant group in Somalia.
